I have again updated the build instructions, incorporating Dan's suggestions for for improvement.
Note that while there is a gradlew.bat script (for a build on Windows) in the develop branch of the repository, there is *no* gradlew.bat script included with an Apache Geode (incubating) release of the source code. This means that the build instructions differ based on where the source is acquired from. These instructions assume acquisition of the repository from the develop branch, as I think should be the case for a Geode developer. Please take a look and suggest further feedback.
